Sober & Lit Podcast
My Drinking Isn't That Bad / EP 116
Mar 31, 2026
Season 3
Episode 116
Susan Larkin & Ruby Williams
What if the thought keeping you stuck… sounds totally normal?
“My drinking isn’t that bad.”
We hear this all the time. Maybe you’ve said it too.
But what if that one thought is the thing quietly keeping you…
• tired
• stuck
• not quite living at your full potential
In this episode of Sober & Lit, we go there...gently, honestly, no shame.
We talk about:
• the gray area most women live in
• the comparison trap (“at least I’m not that bad…”)
• those sneaky permission-giving thoughts
• why you don’t need rock bottom to change
• how to get curious instead of critical
And a few real questions for you…
➡️ Is alcohol actually working for you anymore?
➡️ Or have you just learned to live with it?
This isn’t about labels. This isn’t about perfection.
It’s about feeling better. Sleeping better. Living more… lit.
